The recipes in the Shadows on the Teche cookbook from New Iberia are 100% rock solid. It’s a community fundraiser cookbook but I’ve used it for 20 years as a source and everything in it is good to go.

Paul Prudhomme's Louisiana Kitchen is the #1 classic.
The Tom Fitzmorris book referenced above is the one we use most.

Y'all will probably scoff at this, but this thin little book, which is more like a pamphlet, is good to have on hand. The ingredient lists and instructions are simple and short.
I usually reference it first when working on a dish and then dive deeper in other cookbooks or online.

I have tons of New Orleans/Louisiana/Cajun/Creole cookbooks. The one I use the most is this one, "The New Orleans Cookbook" by Richard Collin
The one I consult the most is this one, "The Encyclopedia of Cajun & Creole Cuisine" by John Folse

He's who Fitzmorris always wished he could be. Although, Tom's cook book is really quite good.

Absolutely. It was through his "Underground Gourmet" restaurant reviews back in the 70s that I learned about LeRuth's, Moscas, and so many other great New Orleans restaurants.
